Fred Phelps' Leviticus 18:22 monument

Fred Phelps plans a monument to homophobia in Wyoming.

Brendan Burke Casper Star-Tribune:

Rev. Fred Phelps and his Westboro Baptist Church of Topeka, Kan., announced plans Thursday to erect a monument in Casper’s City Park.

The monument would be made of marble or granite, stand 5 to 6 feet in height, with a heavy bronze plaque bearing the face of slain University of Wyoming student Matthew Shepard and an inscription reading “MATTHEW SHEPARD, Entered Hell October 12, 1998, in Defiance of God’s Warning: ‘Thou shalt not lie with mankind as with womankind; it is abomination.’ Leviticus 18:22,” a letter from the Westboro Baptist Church signed by Phelps sent to the city of Casper states.

You can’t CHOOSE to be agnostic. Agnosticism is that no-man’s land, that middle ground, between atheism and christianity. Anyone who does any studying at all should come to a conclusion as to what they believe. Agnostics are agnostic because they have no desire to know the truth.

Agnostics simply don’t believe that they can know the truth. I used the term for myself for many years. Eventually I did make up my mind and started calling myself an atheist.
